摘要

The Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1) exists as a homo-dimer in the plasma membranes. In the present study, we have investigated the functional significance of the dimerization, using two nonfunctional NHE1 mutants, surface-expression-deficient G309V and transport-deficient E262I. Biochemical and immunocytochemical experiments revealed that these NHE1 mutants are capable of interacting with the wild-type NHE1 and, thus, forming a heterodimer. Expression of G309V retained the wild-type NHE1 to the ER membranes, suggesting that NHE1 would first form a dimer in the ER. On the other hand, expression of E262I markedly reduced the exchange activity of the wild-type NHE1 through an acidic shift in the intracellular pH (pH(i)) dependence, suggesting that dimerization is required for exchange activity in the physiological pH(i) range. However, a dominant-negative effect of E262I was not detected when exchange activity was measured at acidic pH(i), implying that one active subunit is sufficient to catalyze ion transport when the intracellular H+ concentration is sufficiently high. Furthermore, intermolecular cysteine cross-linking at extracellular position Ser(375) with a bifunctional sulfhydryl reagent dramatically inhibited exchange activity mainly by inducing the acidic shift of pH(i) dependence and abolished extracellular stimuli-induced activation of NHE1 without causing a large change in the affinities for extracellular Na+ or an inhibitor EIPA. Because monofunctional sulfhydryl regents had no effect, it is likely that cross-linking inhibited the activity of NHE1 by restricting a coupled motion between the two subunits during transport. Taken together, these data support the view that dimerization of two active subunits are required for NHE1 to possess the exchange activity in the neutral pH(i) range, although each subunit is capable of catalyzing transport in the acidic pH(i) range.
